Can you manage a single library from two Pcs with iTunes at the same time?

Dear all,
I have a laptop and a desktop pc. Currently all my music and itunes are on the laptop. My laptop hard disk is filling up, so i want to move all the music off to the desktop. And yes i'd like to keep all the music in one location on the desktop pc. But ideally i'd like to be able to import new music to the library from both PCs, and also be able to modify the playlists and other details from both PCs. I looked at Sharing but that doesn't seem to let the non-owner to change the playlists....
Any ideas how i can set this up?
Thanks a lot, Dave

The AE has multiple ports that can be expanded using hubs that we can hopefully connect the existing 3 TV sources, and can receive / transmit to multiple computers but can it operate the iTunes, internet distribution, and TV output (with switching TV inputs via the iMac & AE Utility) at the same time or do we need multiple AEs and another computer?
The AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) does not have a TV or video output.
The AEBS, just like any other router, supports multiple clients simultaneously. Of course there is always bandwidth limitations for any device. So in theory the AEBS can support all of that. In reality the performance of each service will depend on the bandwidth used by each and the bandwidth available. This is no different than any router.

  • Can you run Embedded PL/SQL Gateway and Oracle HTTP Server at the same time

    Hi,
    I know this will sound a bit odd but their is a business case for asking this. Can you run APEX via the Embedded PL/SQL Gateway and the Oracle HTTP Server at the same time? Would their be any security/stability/etc issues I'd need to worry about? I know that I'll need to run them on different ports.
    Thank you,

    I think I've done this in the past. Theres no technical reason why you can't do this as far as I know.
    I can't remember if I used different ports or same port.

  • HT204291 Can you send music to more than one airplay enabled speaker at the same time

    I have just purchased an airplay enabled speaker which is great, I would like another in the kitchen so as you move from room to room you can listen to the same music but I am not sure if you can play the music through more than one speaker at a time ?

    iOS devices and Apple TV's will only send the audio to one Airplay speaker at a time. However, iTunes on a computer will send audio to multiple Airplay speakers. With the help of Home Sharing and Apple's free Remote app on an iOS device you can control iTunes as well as the speakers connected to it.

  • Can you watch video on a tv while charging your ipod at the same time?

    AppleTV 1 used to be able to output its audio to an Express AppleTV cannot.
    Maybe using Airplay from itunes/idevice.

    How can you pull in pdf's from iBooks and bring them into the Box app?

    That sounds great, but I'm lost.
    I followed these steps:
    1) Open your PDF (in Adobe Acrobat Pro)
    2) Chose print
    The print/printer options pop-up will show.
    3) In the printer section, do not use your normal printer, a printer named Adobe PDF should be an option. Chose it.
    4) Under the "Page handling" section, change the Page Scaling drop-down menu to "Multiple pages per sheet".
    It works fine, but it looses all of the font information and the search no longer works. How can you do it and save the font info, so the search tool continues to operate.
    Am I missing anything?

    Before going ahead on this you should definitely check with Apogee as I think they do not recommend using their interface(s) in an Aggregate device.
    Maybe that's changed.. not sure.

    I downloaded two movies from itunes at the same time (both free digital copies from a dvd) and when they finished downloading... they disappeared. I've not been able to re-download them or find them.. anywhere. Any suggestions for tracking them down?

    If you downloaded them on your computer's iTunes then they should have gone into the Movies part of your iTunes library, if on a device (iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch) then into the Videos app - they haven't appeared there ?
    If you downloaded on your PC and they don't show in the Movies section then you could try searching for them by name (or part of their name) via windows explorer and see if that finds them. Or if you downloaded them on a device and they aren't in the Videos app then have you got a film age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding them, and if not can you find them via the device's spotlight search screen (swipe your first homescreen to the right) ?

  • Can I connect my Mac to two separate wireless networks at the same time?

    Need some assistance with some advanced wireless networking please....
    Upstairs I have a D-link wireless router connected to the internet and wired to a couple of PCs. Downstairs I have a minimac linked to my hifi via an airport express. I have bought a D-Link DWL-G122 usb wifi dongle.
    So I want the mini mac to connect to the airport express on one wireless network (strong signal) and to be able to connect to the internet on another network (weak signal) via the usb wifi /router.
    But the airport software and the d-link driver seem to conflict and both try to take control of the two wireless devices.
    Is there any way round this to be able to run one mac with two wireless network devices at the same time?
    Thanks

    While those with more experience may be able to correct me, I'm pretty sure that you can only connect to one wireless network at a time with your Mac Mini, unless D-Link provides their own proprietary software that bypasses the computer's Airport settings.
    Using the AirPort hardware you can only connect to a single wireless network at any given time. However in this situation the 2 attempted connections are via USB and AirPort. Therefore this requires nothing special of the AirPort drivers or settings.
    It does require that the Mac OS and applications have the capability to use either network connection (USB or AirPort) depending on what data they are trying to get. In general I understand how it is theoretically possible but I have no idea if you can configure OS X to do it.
    ...I believe one of the options when setting up the Airport Extreme Base Station is that you can extend a wireless network already in place.
    True but the D-Link is not compatible with Apple's WDS therefore this is not possible in this situation.
    If you have a newer Airport Extreme Base Station with a USB port on it...
    FYI, every AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) has a USB port.
    BTW, birky has indicated that he/she is using an AirPort Express (AX) not an AEBS.

  • Can two subVI show up at the same time?

    Can two subVI show up at the same time?

    Hi,
    Save the vi as a template (*.vit), then you can open it (dynamically) as
    often as you want. If you make the vi "floating", you get the best results.

  • IS there a way to load and purchase different photos from iPhoto and ship them at the same time? the only way that I can find is to purchase each photo (or multiple of one) at a time, which increases the cost of shipping, as I want to get one print of 20

    Is there a way to order multiple different prints in any quantity from Iphoto? it appears currently like I would have to ship each separately, even if only one print... is there a way around this so I can can get several DIFFERENT prints of any quantity and ship all at the same time?

    Sure - easiest way is to make an album for photos you want to order and drag photos to it - when it is complete open the album, select all and order

  • When our iPad is in use on the internet, my iMac internet connection goes off. I can't get the two devices to work at the same time with the AirPort Express. Is there a setting somewhere I may have missed?

    When our iPad is in use on the internet, my iMac internet connection goes off. I can't get the two devices to work at the same time with the AirPort Express. Is there a setting somewhere I may have missed?

    When two or more devices conflict it typically means that the DHCP service is either misconfigured or is not running at all. DHCP provides IP addresses to local network clients.
    Is your AirPort Express base station the only router in your current network configuration? That is, is it connected directly to an Internet modem and not to another router upstream of it?
